<p>The concept of transmedia storytelling delves into how stories travel beyond the media boundaries. The most popular theoretical framework to categorize a work as a transmedia story is based on Jenkins’ definition which is based on media-franchise. According to this model, each medium offers an extension of the storyworld. However, the franchise-based theoretical model of transmedia storytelling restricts its comprehension as a global concept. On that note, this research paper aims to develop a working model of transmedia storytelling for Indian narratives which exhibit the form of a <i>banzome,</i> a neologism derived from the combination of Deleuze and Guattari’s rhizome juxtaposed with banyan tree, which is popularly known as the Indian tree of knowledge. Additionally, different media representations of <i>Panchatantra</i> are used as an example to illustrate the <i>banzomi</i>c transmedia storytelling model as observed in the Indian narratives.</p>
